Lesson 6 Cross-curricular topic

Lesson 6 presents cross-curricular content from key areas of the curriculum, and new vocabulary. The story world is now left behind and Monty and Lola are back in their classroom, in a Science, Art, Music, P.E. or Maths class. The cross-curricular content and the new vocabulary are presented in a poster. Then the children do some consolidation activities in the Class Book lesson.

Cross-curricular poster

• Use the unit cross-curricular poster to present the new vocabulary during the lead-in section of the lesson. See the Ideas bank for a more detailed explanation of the poster presentation routine.

• Alternatively, use the digital poster on the iPack for presentation via an interactive whiteboard.

Class Book

• First, the children look at the pictures in the activity to guess what the recording will be about. The teacher elicits as many relevant words as possible.

• Then the children listen to the recording and point to the pictures in their books. The teacher asks some comprehension questions.

• Then they listen to the recording and repeat the vocabulary in chorus.

• In the third activity, the children do a personalized drawing activity to practise the concepts and vocabulary on the page and prepare for Activity 4.

• After a clearly modelled example, the children do a freer speaking activity in pairs or as a class.

Activity Book

• In the first activity, the children practise reading the new concepts and vocabulary they have learnt.

• In the second activity, they practise writing the new vocabulary.

Optional

• The Cross-curricular worksheet on the Teacher’s Resource CD-ROM offers further exploitation of the content in the form of a project task.
